Side-polished SMS based RI sensor employing macro-bending perfluorinated POF
A refractive index (RI) sensor based on perfluorinated plastic optical fiber (PF-POF) is introduced in this paper. The PF-POF as multi-mode fiber was side-polished (SP) to form a macro-bending single-mode-multimode-single-mode (SMS) structure.

A review of single-mode fiber optofluidics [PDF]
We review the field we describe as “single-mode fiber optofluidics” which combines the technologies of microfluidics with single-mode fiber optics for delivering new implementations of well-known single-mode optical fiber devices.

Single-mode Sapphire Optical Fiber Temperature Sensor
Sapphire fiber is intrinsically multimoded, resulting in poor precision sensors. We demonstrate a 4-cm single-mode sapphire fiber with a Bragg grating temperature sensor and a standard-fiber tail, operating up to 1200°C.

Rare Earth Doped Optical Fibers with Multi-section Core
Summary: The gain bandwidth of a single-mode fiber is limited by the atomic transitions of one rare earth gain element. Here we overcome this long-standing challenge by designing a new single-mode fiber with multi-section core, where each section is ...

Reduction of relative intensity noise of the output field of semiconductor lasers due to propagation in dispersive optical fiber [PDF]
The effect of dispersive, linear propagation (e.g., in single-mode optical fiber) on the intensity noise from semiconductor lasers is investigated. Relations between the frequency and amplitude noise variations of semiconductor lasers are obtained from ...

Hollow core Bragg fiber with antiresonant intermediate layer
By means of the transfer matrix method, the optical properties of fibers with a distinct intermediate layer between a hol-low core and periodic cladding are calculated. The periodic cladding consists of two types of the alternating layers.

Mode division multiplexing using an orbital angular momentum mode sorter and MIMO-DSP over a graded-index few-mode optical fibre [PDF]
Mode division multiplexing (MDM)– using a multimode optical fiber’s N spatial modes as data channels to transmit N independent data streams – has received interest as it can potentially increase optical fiber data transmission capacity N-times with ...
